The main fight of the evening, geographically beyond the scope of the Russia-China meeting, was a heavyweight duel in the category of over 91 kg between Tair Kelekhsaev (Tskhinval, South Ossetia) and Georgian Tamaz Zadishvili.

The Russia-China boxing match took place on Thursday in Vladikavkaz. As part of the tournament, 11 fights were held in the format of three rounds of three minutes and one 6-round fight.

The problem of recognition of the genocide of South Ossetians by Georgia in 1920 is exclusively in the legal plane. This position was made by the head of the RISI Caucasus Studies sector, Arthur Ataev.

According to the expert, now the representatives of South Ossetia must, in accordance with international law, prove that they had factual grounds.

As noted by Ataev , the genocide has long been recognized at the level of popular consciousness and historical work.

Under this name, commemorative events in South Ossetia will be held on the night of August 7-8. The project itself, prepared for the next anniversary of the August war, is called "Let's Remember Everything."

Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin instructed to submit an appeal of the Parliament of the Republic of South Ossetia on the recognition of the genocide of South Ossetians in 1920 by Georgia to the Council of the Duma for the nearest consideration.

The dance ensemble "Narty" won the grand prix, and its soloist Alina Gagloeva received the Miss Festival cup at the tenth international festival "Tulum Ve Müzik Festivali", which was held in the Turkish city of Riza, the Slovo newspaper reported.

As noted by the head of the ensemble Vladislav Zaseev , the festival was being held for several days, and every day they represented different national dances.
